Sunshine Coast Debt Disputes
The debt recovery process in Queensland begins with a formal demand letter. This letter places your concerns in writing and outlines to the other party:
- The quantity of money you believe you are owed by them
- How this debt was incurred
- Your nominated method of payment
- What date they should comply by
- The consequences of a failure to comply with this demand letter by the chosen date.
Sunshine Coast litigation lawyers can write a letter of demand for you and can pursue the matter in court if the formal demand is ineffective.
The Sunshine Coast Litigation Process
Alternate Dispute Resolution Processes – ‘ADR’
Alternate Dispute Resolution processes, otherwise known as ADR, includes a variety of resolution processes that aim to avoid the need to go to court.
Contrary to popular belief, disputes are often settled outside of the court room via conciliation or settlement conferences, arbitration, negotiation or via mediation.
Going to court is a time-consuming and expensive process, the results of which are inherently uncertain.
Good Sunshine Coast litigation lawyers will always try to settle a dispute away from court.
As such, the purpose of ADR is to come to an agreement with the other party.
Dispute lawyers can initiate these processes and provide representation and assistance throughout.
Litigation
If alternate dispute resolution processes fail, your lawyer will take your dispute to court.
A dispute lawyer is well-versed in the complexities of the process of filing and responding to a dispute. When this has been completed, both sides will have a better idea of the issues in dispute and the disclosure process begins.
Disclosure is the mechanism by which each party seeks documents and information relevant to the issues in dispute and that they consider will support their claim or defence.
Both sides have the duty to disclose to the other party any document in their possession that is directly related to proceedings at hand.
With this information, your Sunshine Coast litigation lawyer will further identify the key issues and frame a case strategy.
At trial, your lawyer may brief a barrister to act in your interests. Both parties will present their argument and the court determines the matter.
Your lawyer will also conduct the post- trial procedures such as recovery of costs and enforcement of any judgments made.
